Raising the Blackened Fighting ones

[Ownager]

How do you enable those units that EB removed due to questionable historical accuracy? The Ebherni Shock infantry, the Vasci heavy infantry and the double handed hammer guys? I promise to only use one unit of them.

[Ryoga84]

Not for brag or spam, but I'm working on a submod dealing with this matter (and others as well)

[Ownager]

Oh. So it's not just some simple modding? When will you finish it?

[Ryoga84]

well, it's a simple modding, like adding any other unit
you change some flag here and there, add a pair of strings in the EDB, eventually copy two files from the UI and done

[Ownager]

Is there a guide for that, or was that it? I come from an ancient century when computers weren't necessary for life.

[Ryoga84]

ok, I think it will be something like this...

this should do the trick... probably
sorry, but I've got my hands a little full and I can't test it

but if all goes well, Rome could recruit Vasci in Militia Barracks 5 in Cantabria and Asturia and the two goidlic units in Militia Barracks 5 in Ireland

[Ownager]

What about the Casse? Can they? Plus rep for your help though.

[Ryoga84]

uhm... for Casse, I think should be enough

with this they should be recruitable only in Cruddain (the only expansion region in ireland) with level 4 factional barracks

oh, and I'm not sure, but probably it will kick in only with the Time of Soldiers

Er, no. You need to delete the words saying "and hidden_resouce not_here" at the end of the line in export_descr_buildings because that's the part that was used to dummy them out.
Also, why enable them for Romans? They're already available for Celts and Lusitannan.

with this they should be recruitable only in Cruddain (the only expansion region in ireland) with level 4 factional barracks

If you enable them in the usual way, they'll be available in Erain and Cruddain from tier 4 regional barracks, for all factions concerned.

oh, and I'm not sure, but probably it will kick in only with the Time of Soldiers

I think they're independent of reforms.

[Ownager]

That's great. Sorry, I forgot to rep you earlier I think.

[Ryoga84]

no prob

[Ownager]

I can't give you anymore! When did I give you last? Sometimes this 'spreading rep' thing can be a nuisance, although I see how it can be useful.

[Ryoga84]

I'm over-famed and the reputation system hate me

[Ownager]

Lucky me. I'm under fame and every one hates me.

[Ownager]

What would be correct then?

[Ryoga84]

Sorry, I didn't browsed the entire EDB, I only made up some strings allowing the use of the units, if they are already there all the better
By the way, linking the units to the faction barracks, link them as to the reforms



(The roman thing was because I thought ownager was playing as Rome)

[Ownager]

Wait. So Gauls and Britons can get these guys already? No right?
I would never go as far as using them as the Romans, all though I might use them as celts.

[athanaric]

Wait. So Gauls and Britons can get these guys already? No right?

No they can't, by default.
